Juan Perez took climbing the wall to a new level.
The San Francisco Giants outfielder scaled the center field wall to absolutely rob St. Louis Cardinals rookie Stephen Piscotty of an extra-base hit with an over-the-shoulder catch Wednesday:

Piscotty would get his revenge two innings later, hammering a Matt Cain offering over the left field wall - far out of the reach of Perez - for the second home run of his young career.
Perez, normally the Giants' left fielder and generously listed at 5-foot-11, made a spot start at center during the contest.
